Edward Daniel Johnson

Edward Daniel Johnson (30 September 1815 – 8 March 1889) was an English watch and marine chronometer maker from London.

Watches from this period (c. 1849–1855) show the address as "21 Ashley Crescent, City Road, London" inscribed on the movement.

Johnson was granted the Freedom of the City of London on 17 January 1860 by Redemption in the Company of Clockmakers.

[3] In June 1873, the British Horological Institute ran an essay competition, sponsored by Baroness Burdett-Coutts.

The 'son' is believed to refer to Edward given that he lived at 10 Wilmington Square, which was inscribed on E. D. Johnson watch movements at this time.
